Descrição:

ABSOLUTE CHRONOLOGY OF THE ANCIENT WORLDS by Gerard Gertoux

Through astronomy, it is possible to check the accuracy of some of these ancient dates. For example, according to Roman authors, Julius Caesar was assassinated on 15 March of the year 710 of Rome, or 15 March 44 BCE in the old Julian calendar. However, according to astronomy, the vernal equinox fell on 23 March in the Julian (UTC) calendar, implying a shift of 2 days from the official date of 25 March. Consequently, Julius Caesar died on 13 March 44 BCE in the Julian (UTC) calendar, but on 15 March in the old Julian calendar (before 8 BCE).
